Black Pussy Out On The Town.

Humble revivalists marching onto the rock scene with the bold, macho sounds of their debut album ‘On Blonde‘, Black Pussy set themselves aside the hyped-up escalade of musical violence to develop the softer stoner rock aesthetics of the late 60s/early 70s. Amidst hardcore this, trash that and lo-fi everything, surely that’s a tricky card to play, right? But having found a right balance between blues-rock basslines, persistent distortion and Dustin Hill’s soothing pop voice, the sextet successfully take us right back to the origins of heavy rock & Co, with no pretension to replicate the mindfuck of earlier generations. Wishing you a pleasant 4th of July, I can only suggest a trip to Doug Fir tomorrow evening to check them out! They will also be playing Rontoms & Kelly’s Olympian in the next couple of weeks.
